Heightened distress at the time of a loved one's lung cancer diagnosis may motivate relatives to quit smoking or could undermine cessation.
Relatives of new lung cancer patients at Duke were surveyed by telephone to assess diagnosis-related depression, distress, and motivation for smoking cessation.
Relatives who reported above average avoidant and intrusive thinking patterns, depressive symptoms or worry were more likely to report that the patient's diagnosis increased their intentions to quit than the less distressed.
Interventions are needed that encourage smoking cessation as a strategy for adaptively coping with a loved ones' lung cancer diagnosis.
在亲人被诊断出肺癌时,亲人的高度痛苦可能会促使其戒烟,也可能会破坏戒烟行为。
通过电话对杜克大学新确诊肺癌患者的亲属进行调查,以评估与诊断相关的抑郁、痛苦以及戒烟动机。
与痛苦程度较低的亲属相比,那些报告有高于平均水平的回避和侵入性思维模式、抑郁症状或担忧的亲属更有可能表示患者的诊断增加了他们戒烟的意愿。
需要采取干预措施,鼓励将戒烟作为一种适应性应对亲人肺癌诊断的策略。
